iPhone 5 - Should You Wait for It or Get iPhone 4S?


Instead of iPhone 5 the world got iPhone 4S on October 4th 2011. To some, the disappointment was great. Others hurried to take advantage of the huge range of features of the 4S model. The question is whether to act now or wait for the 5th generation smart phone of Apple to come out.
It is natural to ask whether there will actually be iPhone 5 any time soon given that the 4S model is packed with so many new software features. Even though there is no official statement from Apple, speculations suggest that the 5th generation smart phone of the company will be released in the fall of 2012 at the latest.
This is good news for all those who plan to wait for the next technological miracle by Apple. However, you really have to ask yourself whether iPhone 5 will actually have many more and better features than the 4S model.
Let's take a look at what we have available now. IPhone 4S has the iOS 5 software with some 200 new and improved features. You get notifications on your screen all the time while your work does not get interrupted thanks to the innovative Notification Center. Twitter is now fully integrated into the system so you can tweet from a number of apps. IMessage is a functional instant messaging app with various features.
The iCloud technology allows you to use the 4S device without connecting it to the internet for set up and upgrading. Additionally, it makes the sharing of data between devices simple and quick.
Siri is another great innovation. In its essence it is a voice assistant. Simply put, you give commands to Siri and it performs. You can ask whether to take an umbrella with you tomorrow and it will give you the weather forecast.
The dual core processor of the 4S smart phone allows for faster and more reliable performance. The 8 megapixel camera produces better photos. The touch screen is more convenient to use.
The question is what more you can possibly want. What more can iPhone 5 actually offer? There are two major improvements from 4S that the 5th generation smart phone is expected to have. The first one is the 4G capability which will allow for much faster and more reliable data transfer speed. The second one is the thinner design. In fact, rumors say that iPhone 5 will have super sleek teardrop design. The screen is expected to be larger as well. You can certainly anticipate a few surprises as well.
